Nation's Tri Photos

I am so tired. I did nothing today but get an overpriced, bad massage. So I'll save the gory details til later.

Meantime, enjoy these candids:

Me racking bike right next to the famous Nancy Toby! What are the chances?? I am obviously extremely busy selling low and buying high. We had to rack the bikes the Saturday before because there was ABSOLUTELY NO RACKING on Sunday morning. Except for those people who racked on Sunday. Rules were made to be broken, apparently!

Still upright at mile 2.5 (I think) of the 10k, at the fabulous D.C. Tri Club water stop on Haine's point. The 67-year old man in the background (right) smokes me while I hold a long conversation. About what, I have no idea.

Same place, look, I'm even smiling! Cuz my peeps Bryan and Sandy were there to talk me off the ledge! I am soooo happy to see people I know! Photos courtesy the CHIANG

And then we have the finish line. Where I am in a wet t-shirt, and my girls seem to have taken on a life of their own. You could put an eye out with those things!
I am ONLY posting this because I believe in an unfettered press. I would pay money for someone to photo-jack this. Me, and minime, finish. She's sooo cute! Her first Olympic!

No triathlon is complete without a wet t-shirt contest. I'm pretty sure that's true. And the girls look pretty round to me - not eye pokers at all!

I was wondering who out there at 2.5ish knew my name - but now it all makes sense. Sandy! Good to see ya put the puzzle together for me.

Nice photos! You look like you had fun.

I wonder if anyone has ever called me Mini-me without me knowing it ...

I'm pretty sure I saw you a couple times on the bike, and I think she passed me on the run and finished a couple minutes ahead of me, but I was WAY too far into the Deep Bite Me Zone to be sociable at any point during the race....

Nancy Toby said...

And by the way, how do you manage to look cheerful and charming in every photo EVEN WHILE BEATING ME ON THE RUN!??

I hate that about you.
